The huey manual says to not touch down with more than 25 knots due to the risk of ripping off the skid gear... (although this would be the last thing in a long list of things in a real emergency.)..
Just asking: if you pull the collective at 35kt, what is the airspeed of ground contact, much more than 25kt?
